PORTLAND, ME – The Maine Red Claws, presented by Quirk Chevrolet, today announced that they will play their only 2010-11 preseason game on November 15 at the Augusta Civic Center. The announcement was made by Red Claws President and General Manager Jon Jennings in the Kennebec Journal this morning.

“The Red Claws have had tremendous support from the Augusta area, and we are thrilled to be making a return trip to the state capital,” Jennings said. “We had a great season in our first year, and it all began in Augusta. We are looking forward to launching our second season there.”
